I just want to say that I went to my first Padre game in 1970. I was in Marine boot camp in San Diego and our entire platoon and series (4 platoons) went to the Padre game. We, of course, were required to cheer for the Padres. I've been cheering ever since. I've cheered through all the era's, ups and downs, watched Hoffman trot from the bullpen to "Hell's Bells", stood up amazed every time Tony Gwynn came up to bat and singled to right field with ease, up until now when Musgrove pitched the no hitter.
So, I really don't care if anyone that's not a Padre or Philly fan watches the game.
Go Padres!
